They will soon fast track a new resort at Inuvik,on the Arctic Ocean. It will be extremely popular,mainly because it will be the only beach resort left where people can enjoy a nice cool swim. A six lane (車道) highway will be built so people from across North America can easily access the resort with their SUV's and Winnebagos.
By 2010 parts of the southern States will be abandoned due to the heat and the extreme weather. So,the parts of Las Vegas that can be moved will be moved to Inuvik,along with a bunch of shopping malls.
Immediately next to the beach will be a huge iceberg,made out of white plastic. Penguins and pandas,by popular demand,will be placed on the top; elephants and giraffes will be imported to run around on a platform at the base of the iceberg. Unfortunately the plastic,of course,will soon damage the feet of the animals,so they will all have to wear pink booties. So,as all the animals proudly walk around in their booties,all the Americans will agree that,although Inuvik isn't a Disneyland or a Las Vegas,it certainly is a nice cool place.
In 2010,most of the people in the southern United States will escape the fires,heat,hurricanes,tornados,snow,and flooding by heading north to the Arctic Ocean where they will settle in the resort city of Inuvik. This location not only has a cool ocean to swim in,but at the end of the beach there are two real trees to enjoy. Those trees will look strong and healthy,because they will be nourished and protected by a team of 140 dedicated workers,24 hours a day.
In late June,tourists in Inuvik will love to enjoy themselves for 20 hours a day in real sunshine (which will be mostly smog free,as long as the wind blows from the north) . In the winter,Inuvik will be even busier. It will attract people from around the globe who want to adapt to global warming by escaping.
The escape will last all night long,and in Inuvik in December,that means the party goes on for 24 hours. At the end of the night,as the party comes to an end,everyone will have a chance to pause and relax,then they can plunge into the next night's party. Inuvik will be the most popular resort on the planet.
( ) 1. Why will Inuvik become an extremely popular resort in 2010,according to the passage?
A. Tourists can enjoy themselves together with some animals.
B. People can enjoy a nice cool summer in Inuvik.
C. Las Vegas will have been moved to Inuvik.

3. C文章第4段提到2010年南方的人們?yōu)樘颖茏匀粸?zāi)害到北極去生活。

When India was seeking independence from Britain,the country's Muslim population real?ized that if India became independent,the country would be governed mainly by Hindus. They did not want to be ruled by people of a different religion.
In 1946,the Muslim League organized a day of " Direct Action". This resulted in Muslims killing Hindus. Attempts to stop the unrest and bring the two sides together failed. It seemed that there would be war in India. The British tried to help the two sides reach an agreement.
Although Gandhi was against the division of India,his opinion however was ignored by the major political parties―the Muslim League and Hindu Congress Party. When no agreement could be reached,the decision was made to divide the country into two sections following inde?pendence.
The task of dividing the country was impossible. In many places there were equal numbers of Hindu and Muslim people. Finally,a British man was given the task of drawing the line which created the Muslim state of Pakistan and divided India forever. He was chosen for his neutral position,as neither the Hindus nor the Muslims trusted each other.
India gained its independence on 15th August,1947,and a period of great violence fol?lowed. Hindus and Muslims killed each other. Many people lost their lives. The Indian Army,which was supposed to stop the fighting,either did nothing or actively joined in the killing.
There was death everywhere. Millions of Muslims fled to Pakistan while Hindus headed to?wards India from Pakistan. This movement lasted for months.
Gandhi was saddened by the killings. He could not prevent the disaster,but he was very upset. The final part of the tragedy was his being murdered. He was killed by a Hindu who did not agree with Gandhi's wish for Hindus and Muslims to live together in peace.
( ) 5. The conflict between Hindus and Muslims has its origin in .
A. religion B. language C. land D. population
( ) 6. Which of the following is the right order according to the passage? a. India got the independence from Britain.
b. The Muslim League organized a day of "Direct Action".
c. The country was divided into two sections.
d. Gandhi was murdered by a Hindu.
A. a-b-c-d B. d-c-b-a C. b-a-c-d D. c-a-d-b
( ) 7. Why was a British man asked to draw the line between Hindus and Muslims?
A. Both sides were violent.
B. British conquered the India.
C. Both sides hoped for a fair division.
D. The army of the country was not powerful.
( ) 8. Which of the following is true about Gandhi?
A. He was on the side of the Muslims.
B. He was in favor of the division of India and Pakistan.
C. He contributed to drawing a line between the two sections.
D. He promoted peace instead of violence to solve the problem.

What sort of life will you be living 39 years from now? Scientists have looked into the future and they can tell you. It looks as if everything will be so easy that people will probably die from boredom. You will be going around in some vehicles at 200 miles an hour and you will think nothing of taking a fortnight's holiday in outer space.
Your house will probably have air walls,and a floating roof,adjustable to the angle of the sun. Doors will open automatically,and clothing will be put away by remote control. The heating and cooling systems will be built into the furniture. You'll have a home control room― an electronics centre,where messages will be recorded when you're away from home. This will play back when you return,and also give you up-to-the-minute world news,and write down your latest mail. You'll have wail-to-wall global TV,an indoor swimming pool,TV-telephones and room-to-room TV.
The status symbol of the year 2000 will be the home computer help,which will help mother tend the children,cook the meals and issue reminders of appointments.
Cooking will be in solar ovens with microwave controls. Food won't be very different from 1961,but there will be a few new dishes―instant bread,foodless foods ( minus nutritional properties) ，juice powders and so on.
At work,dad will operate on a 24-hour week. The office will be airconditioned with pleasant smell and extra oxygen to give a physical and psychological lift. Mail and newspapers will be reproduced instantly anywhere in the world by facsimile (傳真) .There will be machines doing the work of clerks,shorthand writers and translators. Machines will "talk" to each other.
It will be the age of pressbutton transportation. Rocket belts will increase a man's step to 30 feet,and bustype helicopters will travel along crowded air ways. There will be moving plasticcovered pavements,200 mph. monorail trains operating in all large cities. The family car will be soundless and the engine will be smaller than a typewriter. Cars will travel overland on an 18 inch air cushion. Railways will have one central operator,who will control a whole nation's traffic. Jet trains will be guided by electronic brains.
By the year 2020,five percent of the world's population will have emigrated into space. Many will have visited the moon and beyond.
Our children will learn from TV,recorders and teaching machines. They will get pills to make them learn faster.
We shall be healthier,too. There will be no common colds,cancer,tooth decay or mental illness. Rejuvenation (年輕化) will be in the middle stages of research,and people will live healthily,to 85 or 100.
It's the way they think the world will live in the next century―if there's any world left!

All this antismoking stuff is tiresome. Tobacco is a critical part of our national economy,and tax income from tobacco to the state and federal government is very important. To cut to the chase,smoking is good for America. Smoking is patriotic. Everyone over the age of 21 should smoke or use tobacco.

I had a cigar with a couple buddies (companions,partners) over the Christmas weekend. And I loved it. Why would I ever want to quit such a wonderful practice? Why would anyone?
Sin and vice are good things people meet. Embrace them. Life's too short to worry about tomorrow,let alone 10〜20 years down the line.
Also,I smoked that cigar within 25 ,of an entranceway. So all you selfrighteous,antismoking jerks (fools) ... stuff it.

I think nicotine is the most highly addictive drug ever discovered. Smokers should be treated sympathetically and all health plans should pay for treatment.
#9400 ' Posted by atomicdog 88 at 12/28/05 8:26 a.m.
What if they don't want that treatment? You're still going to treat them with compassion? Maybe,let them in out of the 25' of cold to enjoy a smoke with their meal or while they're out having a good time?
#9445 Posted by Ben at 12/28/05 12:19 p.m.
Seriously,smoking is a choice,they have the right too. Most people who smoke want to. The sad truth is that we all pay the high medical costs for their poor health. But smokers do cause a high amount of state tax.
Vmalways against the socalled "sin" taxes. I think they should be repealed and replaced with a flat state income tax. I could care less about smokers―except their financial burden on my insurance premiums (保險費) .
